Preventing insect bites and stings
There is also advice pharmacy teams can share on how to prevent insect bites and stings.
While outside, people can cover their skin with long-sleeved clothing and shoes, use insect repellent, keep food covered and avoid using strong perfumes that can attract insects. Avoid camping near water like lochs or rivers, and keep windows closed in cars and at home to stop insects getting inside.
Don’t worry, you can come back and finish the assessment in your own time.
